15. If you could have any super power, what would it be? Why?

The ability to transform people with positive energy. Life is short and music is too unbelievably amazing to be cloaked in negativity.

That we truly don't care about the popularity aspect of music. We write these songs because we feel them and hope that you will too. The particular song "Hang On" was written by Ryan Clayton in a effort to leave a legacy that could save a life with a single song.

18. What is your assessment of the current state of radio? Do you think it's a place where your band could flourish?

The current state of radio is a dinosaur as far as we're concerned. It's still around and still holds power from a distribution sense. The younger generations are a full on iPod army. Getting your song on their ipod will create more success then getting your song on the radio in our opinion. We have been played on the radio and feel our "style" is marketable within the radio paradigm.

19. What do you like to do in your spare time?

We all enjoy a good comedy movie, fishing, reading, learning about space, time and the possibility of aliens.

20. What kind of hidden talents do you have?

Ryan is a gifted chess player, Adam could win the forklift olympics, Sam is a woodworking god and Bryan is a genius electrician.
